Personal Mod name question...

I know that you cannot use "Scratch" in the name of any mod, but is it okay to use it in the name of a personal mod that only I will be using (Scratch+)? Also, is the same true for the Scratch Cat?

(not entirely sure if this should be in All About Scratch... move if you want, mods!)


I'm currently taking a break from Scratch.
Zing - now even easier to install!

If you're not distributing it, it doesn't matter. It's not like the Scratch Team is going to figure out your address, then come to your house to find it!  tongue

If you're distributing it, you can't use Scratch or the cat.

But it's not being distributed, so I don't think it's a big deal.  smile
